Online Individual Sex Therapy
Online individual sex therapy is a confidential, professional, and affirming space to explore your sexuality with clarity and care. It can support you if you are experiencing low desire, sexual anxiety, difficulty with orgasm, body image concerns, questions about identity or sexual orientation, or if you simply want to build a more conscious, confident, and satisfying relationship with your sexuality.
What Is Online Individual Sex Therapy?
Many people come to individual sex therapy when they feel disconnected from desire, unsure about their sexual responses, anxious during intimacy, or unable to fully enjoy sexual experiences. Others begin therapy because they want to better understand their body, pleasure, sexual identity, orientation, relationship patterns, or personal history with sexuality.
In online individual sex therapy, we explore what may be influencing your desire, body image, identity, sexual functioning, and experience of pleasure. Through an evidence-based, affirming, and nonjudgmental approach, we look at your history, current needs, and the emotional, relational, cultural, and physical factors that may be shaping your sexual well-being.
You don’t have to go through this alone — therapy can help you understand what you’re experiencing and reconnect with yourself.
Topics We Can Work on in Individual Sex Therapy
Individual sex therapy can support you in understanding the different emotional, physical, relational, and cultural factors that shape your sexual well-being. Together, we explore what is happening with care, curiosity, and without pressure to fit into any specific expectation of sexuality.

Understand the possible causes of low or changing sexual desire

Reconnect with your body and your capacity for pleasure
-
Explore difficulty reaching orgasm or fully enjoying sexual experiences
-
Build a more positive and conscious relationship with your sexuality
-
Explore sexual identity, sexual orientation, and gender expression
-
Understand consensual non-monogamy and diverse relationship models
-
Talk about BDSM, fantasies, pornography, or other erotic interests from an informed, nonjudgmental perspective

How We Work in Session
A clear, collaborative process tailored to your pace, goals, and comfort level
In online individual sex therapy, we work in a structured, collaborative way that is adapted to your pace. The process begins with an initial exploration so we can understand your history, your current concerns, and the areas of your sexuality you would like to work on.
Our process usually includes:
-
Initial exploration
During the first three sessions, we get to know your history, your current concerns, and how you would ideally like to feel in relation to your desire, body, pleasure, intimacy, or relationships. -
Creating therapy goals
Based on this initial exploration, we create clear and concrete goals together, using the SMART model to give the therapeutic process direction. -
Personalized therapeutic work
After the initial exploration, we begin working on each goal. The process may include therapeutic conversation, evidence-based sex education, practical exercises, readings, videos, personal reflections, or resources adapted to your needs, interests, and learning style. -
Progress review
After approximately 10 sessions, we review how the process is going in relation to the initial goals. During this review, we can identify progress, adjust the therapy plan, or create new goals if other needs have emerged. -
Integrative care
When needed, we may collaborate with other health professionals, such as couples therapists, pelvic floor physical therapists, gynecologists, urologists, or cardiologists, to provide more comprehensive support.
Individual sex therapy does not involve physical contact, nudity, or sexual practices during the session. It is a professional, confidential, and nonjudgmental space where we move carefully.
If a topic feels uncomfortable or difficult to address, we can return to it later; and when it is clinically important, we will continue approaching it respectfully until you feel ready to explore it more deeply.
Therapeutic Tools We May Use
Clinical and sexological resources adapted to your needs, goals, and pace
In online individual sex therapy, we may use different clinical and sexological tools depending on your needs, therapy goals, and pace. No tool is imposed. Each resource is chosen carefully and collaboratively, respecting your boundaries, your history, and the way you feel most comfortable exploring your sexuality.
Sexual Experience Map
We use the map to understand your sexual experience in an integrated way. It allows us to explore areas such as willingness, libido, pain, arousal, orgasm, and satisfaction, helping us identify which dimensions need more attention and how to address them in therapy.
Evidence-Based Sex Education
Sex education can help you understand sexual response, desire, arousal, orgasm, pain, pleasure, boundaries, consent, fantasies, pornography, and sexual diversity. Clear, reliable information can reduce shame, guilt, and rigid beliefs about how sexuality “should” work.
Personalized Exercises and Resources
Depending on your goals, we may suggest reflection exercises, personal tracking, readings, videos, or concrete practices to explore between sessions. These resources are adapted to your needs, interests, and learning style, and are always offered with consent and respect for your pace.
Brakes and Accelerators of Desire
This tool, developed and adapted by Dr. Lorena Olvera from Emily Nagoski’s research, helps identify what blocks or facilitates sexual desire. We may explore emotional, physical, sensory, relational, contextual, and cognitive factors that influence desire before or during an erotic encounter.
Mindfulsex
Mindfulsex integrates exercises for presence, body awareness, and mindfulness applied to sexuality. It can be helpful for reducing performance pressure, decreasing sexual anxiety, reconnecting with body sensations, and experiencing intimacy with more curiosity, calm, and less judgment.
Integrative Work with Other Health Professionals
When needed, we may collaborate with pelvic floor physical therapists, gynecologists, urologists, cardiologists, couples therapists, or other health professionals. This allows us to make adjustments in the therapy process when concerns involve pain, body changes, medical health, medication, or relationship dynamics.
How Much Does Online Individual Sex Therapy Cost?
The cost of online individual sex therapy depends on the professional you choose to begin your process with. Sessions last 50 minutes and take place in a confidential, professional, and nonjudgmental space where you can explore your sexuality at your own pace.
